New Members Join The Bike Committee Wednesday

IT'S TIME TO TALK BIKES AND WALKING AGAIN
The Costa Mesa Bikeway and Walkability Committee meets again on Wednesday, May 4, 2016 at 6:30 p.m. at the Costa Mesa Senior Center, 695 West 19th Street. You can read the agenda for that meeting HERE.

THREE NEW MEMBERS
Three new members of the committee will join the group for the first time. Russell Baldwin, Cindy Brenneman and Maggie Gallagher fill out the roster.

PLENTY OF GOOD STUFF ON THE AGENDAOn the agenda, as you can see when you review it are an update on the General Plan and new business items for the Placentia Avenue Bicycle Signal Project, Citywide Traffic Calming Project and Bike Infrastructure - Sharrows, Bike Stations. This should make for an interesting evening for those of you interested in the future of bicycling and walking in the city.

LOOKING FOR A STRINGER...Unfortunately, a prior commitment will keep me from attending this meeting and, typically, there is no press coverage of the proceedings. The audience us usually sparse, but perhaps one or more might provide us with some data on the outcome of the discussions. I'll provide the platform.

I'm a cyclist but still can't understand why it cost a million dollars to "improve" a short stretch of bike path along Harbor Boulevard. The money was not a grant, as far as I know, but came from the general fund. Someone made a lot of profit.

I guess it's more visible than spending money for and emergency generator that won't be in the public eye.
